Sometimes my family gets the latest family news during family prayer.  I don't mean to forget to inform them about important updates but when I start to pray these important issues come out in the form of requests and/or gratitude!  It dawns on me as I'm about to say something that it will be the first time that some of them have ever heard this information but I still need to pray about it.  They often feel a little left out like I've been keeping them in the dark but with all the different schedules- what can I say!  Well my daughter was home visiting this week, and one of her friends was over for breakfast.  My husband was at the gym working out.  Kim was making waffles while I  was waiting for the waffles.  Her friend was getting a head start on breakfast by reheating  a previously pealed boiled egg in the microwave oven for 20 seconds. He took it out of the oven and sprinkled salt on the egg.  As he bite into the egg it exploded out of his mouth, all over the counter and  burnt his lips.  He rinsed his mouth with cold water for awhile, said that he was fine.  So we sat down to eat our waffles.  Just as we were about to pray my husband walks in and we invite him to have prayer with us.  Without telling him what had just transpired I began to pray.   I wanted to pray for this young man's lips but knowing that it would be confusing, at the least, to my husband I prayed that he would be blessed from his accident!
